Did you know your sourdough starter has to be fed every single day? Sometimes even twice a day!👀

A sourdough starter is a living culture of wild yeast and beneficial bacteria. Just like any living thing, it needs regular care to stay healthy and strong.

Before a single loaf is mixed, our starter is fed, monitored, and maintained so its's active enough to naturally leaven your bread. This daily care happens whether we're baking one loaf or fifty!

It's one of the many behind-the-scenes steps that goes into each and every loaf we make here at Rise & Roost. It's one of many ways we ensure to put out the best bread possible for our awesome community! 🤎

Just wanted to give you all a little update since so many of you have been checking in on me!🤎

Surgery went well and for that I am incredibly grateful! Recovery has definitely been more challenging than I expected, but I'm taking it one day at a time. Every day looks a little different but I am reminded daily of God's grace and love for us. Through the pain and sleepless nights, I know He is with me through it all, and I truly believe He's the reason I'm getting through this recovery. (Well.. God and my husband, who is living it right alongside me😅🤎)

I won't lie.. I miss baking so much! I miss being in my kitchen, feeding doughlene, creating new goodies to try out, & seeing you all at the stand! But I know my job right now is to heal and work hard in physical therapy so I can come back stronger than ever💪🏼

Thank you all so much for your prayers, patience, & encouragement druing this season of my life! I can't wait to get back into the kitchen and continue serving this amazing community🍞🤎

Miss Doughlene is tucked away in hibernation for just a little while.🤎

Although she'll miss each and every one of you, she'll be ready to make all your favorite breads and goodies as soon as it's time to wake her back up!

Until then, she's getting some well deserved beauty sleep.😴🍞

Sometimes life asks us to slow down, even when we don't really want to.

This coming weekend, July 10th & 11th, will be our last weekend for a little while. The stand will be temporarily closed beginning July 12th and we are unsure at this time when we will be back up and going. During this time I will undergo a knee replacement surgery & start the road to recovery. I'm not exactly sure what that road will look like or how long recovery will take, as it will depend of how the surgery goes and what my rehabilitation entails.

Please know that this wasn't an easy decision for me, but it was a necessary one so that I can heal well and get back to doing what I LOVE - baking & bringing this awesome community fresh, high-quality bread and baked goods.

I want to thank you all for your patience, grace, and continued support. Your encouragement means more than you'll ever know, and I can't wait to reopen the stand as soon as I am able.

With that being said, I will be making extra bread this weekend (July 10th & 11th) for anyone who would like to grab an extra loaf or two to freeze and have while the stand is closed.

Thank you for supporting my small business through every season. I'll keep everyone updated on my recovery and be sure to let you know when Rise & Roost is ready to welcome you back!🤎
